Burial mound tour
Students go with their guide to the burial mounds, where they learn about the excavations in 1939. They also learn about the changing state of Anglo-Saxon society in the 620s, including the arrival of Christian missionaries in East Anglia – and the implications of this change.
Talk
Tutors are able to discuss the elements of the syllabus which they are teaching, and the Learning Officer can tailor a talk to encompass those threads. Topics covered may include customer service, marketing the day-to-day running of a major National Trust property.
